Description Mariusz Pawelski 2020-12-07 23:07:24 UTC

SUMMARY
I cannot set single numpad key as shortuct (for example to easily assign labels for photos)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to Setting > Configure Keyboard Shortcuts
2. Try to set single press of "Numpad1" key as shortcut for 'Assign pick label "Rected"' action.

OBSERVED RESULT
Upon pressing Numpad1 for input, it shows "Num+1, Num+...", expecting some next key to be pressed, as if it's a modifier.

EXPECTED RESULT
It should work as for other not-numpad keys. When I press non-numpad "1" it's assigned as single key shortcut without a problem.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10
(available in About System)
KDE Frameworks Version:   5.73.0
Qt Version: 5.15.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I love digikam. Great that it works on Windows OS. Keep up the good work!

ok, I noticed that digikam doesn't recognize if I press "Num1" or just "1".

So I can make shortcut only for "1" and use "Num1" and "1" to invoke action. Good enought for me. But it is very confusing and non-obvious that this is the case. Especially when it shows this "Num+1, Num+..." text suggesting that digicam can make a difference between "1" key and "Num+1" key.

This problem is not reproducible here with 8.0.0. I tested under Linux Kubuntu, MacOS, and Window 7 (VM) and all can set '1' to "assign pick label rejected" action.

Gif Showing the problem

The buttons I pressed
- "1" and wait a moment.
- "1" then "2" then "3" without waiting much between pressing
- "NumPad1" then waits a lot, then "NumPad1" then waits a lot then "Numpad2" then wait a lot, then "Numpad2" and finally the shortcut is assigned.
- "Numpad1" then waits a lot then "2"

I just installed 8.0.0 on Windows and the issue still occurs.
- I can press "1" (not on numpad, but standard buttons abowe QWERTY) and the "1" is assigned. I can trigger the action by pressing "1" or "NumPad1"
- When I press "Numpad1" when assigning the action it writes "Num+1, Num + ..." and waits for second key to press. And it wait until I press other non numpad key or until I press some NumPad key 4 times.

Hey I attached gif where I press:
- "1" and wait a moment
- "2" then "3" then "4" without waiting much between pressing
- "NumPad1" then waits a lot, then "NumPad1" then waits a lot then "Numpad2" then wait a lot, then "Numpad3" and finally the shortcut is assigned.
- "Numpad1" then waits a lot then "2"
